A troubling incident in Surulere, Lagos, has emerged involving the alleged extortion of ₦1 million from three National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members by police officers. The event was highlighted on X (formerly Twitter) by Oluyemi Fasipe, who shared videos of the encounter.
In the footage, police officers can be seen checking the corps members’ car documents, but the situation quickly escalates. More officers arrived, threatening the occupants. At one point, one officer entered the corps members’ car, blocking them from filming or contacting their families. The officer also instructed them to conceal their phones, reportedly to intimidate and silence them.
